Robotic Implant Surgery vs Free-Hand: 12 RCT Meta-Analysis

A systematic review of 12 randomized controlled trials involving 1,200 implants found that robotic computer‑assisted implant placement significantly reduced surgical time by 25% and lowered complication rates by 15% compared to free‑hand techniques. These findings suggest that robotic assistance can improve precision and patient outcomes in implant dentistry. The study was published in Clinical and Experimental Dental Research (2026 Oct).
